Fujifilm X-M1 Mirrorless Camera Review

Fujifilm X-M1 mirrorless compact system camera officially announced by Fuji back in June, 2013. PhotographyBlog published a full review of the Fujifilm X-M1 mirrorless camera.

Fujifilm x-M1 mirrorless camera features a X-Trans CMOS sensor and is an entry-level camera. The X-M1 has a tilting 920k dot 3″ LCD screen but no eye-level viewfinder, and uses the same 16MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor as the X-Pro1 and X-E1.

Fujifilm X-M1 comes with a new kit zoom, the XC 16-50mm F3.6-5.6 OIS that offers a 24-75mm equivalent range and optical stabilisation, but has no aperture ring.

Ultimately, while we actually preferred the X-E1 to its big brother, the X-Pro1, the same can’t be said about the X-M1, despite it being significantly cheaper and shipping with a good kit lens. The lack of a viewfinder is the main problem – for us, it just feels wrong to pick-up an X-series camera and not be able to hold it up to your eye. The X-M1 does offer the same fantastic image quality as the other two X models, though, so if you prefer to compose your images at arms length, then the Fujifilm X-M1 will more than meet your needs.
